Arsenal Tickets 2026/27: How to Buy at the Emirates Stadium: Complete Guide

Arsenal go into the 2026/27 season as Premier League champions for the first time in 22 years, also as a club still burning from Budapest, where Gabriel's missed penalty gave PSG back-to-back Champions League titles in one of the most dramatic finals in years. 

Because of that double occurrence, Arsenal now has one of the most sought-after football tickets in England and around the world.

However, getting a ticket to watch the Gunners at the Emirates is tough and Arsenal has built it on club loyalty, which makes it difficult to get their match ticket any other way.

This is the complete, up-to-date guide for 2026/27 built from Arsenal's own official ticketing announcements and the full pricing table published on Arsenal.com.

What's new for 2026/27

Arsenal published their men's ticketing guide for 2026/27 in February 2026. The changes are meaningful and affect how and when you can buy.

Two new match categories

The existing Category A, B, and C prices are remaining flat, with no price increase. But Arsenal are adding Category B+, applied to two specific Premier League fixtures, and the conditional Category A+, which may be used for Champions League quarter-final or semi-final home matches if Arsenal reach those stages. 

Arsenal have not pre-announced which two Premier League games will carry B+ pricing; these will be designated on a fixture-by-fixture basis as the season's schedule and broadcast selections are confirmed.

UCL league phase pricing reduced 

Arsenal are reducing one of their four home Champions League league phase matches from Category B to Category C, meaning the four league phase home games will be priced ABBC rather than the previous ABBB. 

A fan-friendly change that acknowledges not every UCL home match carries equal demand.

Licensed safe standing in the Clock End

From the start of 2026/27, licensed standing arrives at the Emirates for the first time. Rail infrastructure has been installed in the Clock End lower tier, with the North Bank lower tier following in 2027/28. 

By 2027/28, around 13,500 supporters will be in licensed standing areas. For this season, the Clock End lower becomes the loudest, most atmospherically charged section in the ground.

Seat utilisation policy continues

Match-by-match ticket holders who do not attend and do not list on the Ticket Exchange on more than one occasion will be blocked from the ballot for the rest of the season. 

List before midnight the night before the match to secure your utilisation credit regardless of whether the ticket sells.

The membership structure

Every route to an Arsenal match ticket runs through a paid membership and no other way. The Gunners have a hierarchy:

Gold Members: Season Ticket Holders 

The highest tier. Season tickets are fully sold out and unavailable to new buyers. Join the waiting list at Arsenal.com, which costs £50 for adults and £25 for juniors, redeemable against your first season ticket purchase when a seat becomes available.

Silver Members 

Silver membership gives ballot access at a higher priority than Red, plus priority access to away tickets through Arsenal's Online Box Office. 

There is a cap on Silver membership, meaning spaces only open when an existing member does not renew. If a Silver slot becomes available, it is the easiest tier for regular home match access without a full season ticket.

Red Members 

The entry-level membership and the primary route for most individual match buyers. Red membership gives you ballot access for every home fixture and access to the Ticket Exchange for sold-out matches. This is where the vast majority of visiting fans and international supporters start.

Junior tiers like Junior Gunners, Young Guns, Cannon, and Team JG, follow the same ballot structure with relevant age-based concession pricing.

How the ballot works

When a fixture goes on sale, it does not open to all members simultaneously. Silver Members access their ballot before Red Members. 

Within each tier, successful purchasers are selected randomly, with membership giving you entry to the draw, not a guaranteed ticket.

Ballot windows open approximately six to eight weeks before each match. Arsenal announce each window by email and on the official ticket portal. 

The fixtures that matter most for ballot planning in 2026/27:

Arsenal's home Premier League schedule includes the following high-demand fixtures. Chelsea visit the Emirates on September 6 in Arsenal's first home London derby. 

Manchester City come to N5 on November 28 for what is historically one of the most expensive domestic tickets at the ground. 

Manchester United visit the Emirates in a blockbuster festive fixture in December. Arsenal host Liverpool on February 6 in what could be a direct title-race clash. 

The first North London Derby is away at Tottenham on December 5, with the return at the Emirates on May 1. The latter carries potential title-deciding implications at Matchday 35, with the league to conclude on May 30.

For Champions League fixtures, the league phase draw on August 27 will confirm Arsenal's eight opponents. Arsenal are in Pot 1, meaning home league phase fixtures will feature opponents from across the competition. 

At least one of the four home UCL league phase matches will be Category C, which will be the most accessible UCL home night of the season and the best target for Red Members chasing a European atmosphere at the Emirates.

The value insight from this table: Category C Lower Tier Behind Goal seats start at £31.80 for adults. That is a really accessible fee to watch the Premier League champions who compete in the Champions League. 

The gap between Behind Goal and Centre seats is significant in every category. For visitors flexible on seating, Lower Tier Wing and Behind Goal seats deliver a strong match experience at a meaningful saving compared to Lower Tier Centre.

The Ticket Exchange

If your ballot entry is unsuccessful, the official Ticket Exchange is the most underused legitimate route.

Season ticket holders who cannot attend list their seat at face value. Red Members can buy these returned seats once a fixture is sold out. 

The tickets appear most frequently in the 72 hours before a match, with midweek Champions League fixtures generating the most Exchange activity as season ticket holders navigate scheduling conflicts.

Arsenal have confirmed that the Ticket Exchange and Ticket Transfer services will continue with no fees passed on to supporters, and free digital accounts for ticket transfers will be maintained.

Hospitality: the guaranteed route

For supporters wanting a confirmed seat regardless of the ballot, Arsenal's hospitality packages bypass the ballot entirely.

Options range from the Avenell Club and the WM dining experiences to premium suite and pitch-level packages. 

Seasonal Dining memberships increase by 5% for 2026/27. For the highest-demand fixtures, hospitality allocations sell significantly faster than general admission. If you act early you can get in through this route.

Verified resale

For fixtures where the ballot fails and the Exchange is empty, LocoTickets provides buyer-protected access to Emirates tickets across all competitions. Arsenal operates cashless, mobile-entry digital ticketing at the Emirates, so any ticket purchased through resale must be compatible with Arsenal's digital transfer system and capable of delivering a valid QR code to your device. Confirm platform compatibility before purchasing.

Photo ID matching the lead booker name is required at the turnstile for secondary market tickets. Carry the ID used when purchasing.

Getting to the Emirates

Arsenal tube station on the Piccadilly line is the most convenient option. It is entry-only before matches, exit-only afterwards to manage crowd flow. 

Holloway Road station is also nearby. From King's Cross St Pancras, the journey takes approximately 20 minutes. Allow 45 minutes from central London to be inside the stadium before kick-off on a big matchday.
